Description

Cosmos, city, home, body, frame, a wooded path, are all references to place. In the exhibition Placemaking Objects, curator Jennifer Hall brings together work by 16 visual artists with studios at Boston Center for the Arts to consider overlapping ideas about place, placemaking and objecthood. Hall will introduce a few individual artworks and talk about how their own place becomes part of the show’s collection.

Participants in this hands-on program will labor together to identify their own connections between the works by creating a physical map between them. Using string to make lines on the floor between artworks, the group will create a collective chart highlighting some of the inter-relationships between elements of each work.
